As much as I wished to have discovered the book before the TV show, that didn't stop the words from amusing me. Even if you don't know what any of the chess pieces do and have no interest in chess, Beth alone can make up for all that. What a character she is! She deserves more appreciation and acknowledgement as one of the most well-developed femme fatale. So, here's a tribute to the one who's "unapologetically feminine," yet not a goddess without flaws.

Philippe Excellent review - I am a chess player and while I enjoy the show's chess theme, I agree the actress plays the role VERY well. Glad to see there is a book to read.


Terence M - [Quot libros, quam breve tempus!] Great pic, but it has either been 'flipped' or the board has been set-up incorrectly. The bottom right-hand square must be white for either player.
